The Univerisity of St. Francis has taken a green approach to their unused air rights in Fort Wayne. Their 15kW system provides added benefits other than just producing clean solar power. Weather shading and coverage is now being provided to students and faculty that choose to park underneath it and has become quite the attraction for those interested in renewable energy. It seems they are the first parking spaces to be filled when cars flow in.

Kennedy Library - Muncie, In

The Kennedy Library is the busiest library we have ever seen! They are involved in numerous community programs to help the city's diverse group of university students, instructors, professors, laborors and entrepreneurs. They wanted to make a statement to show that they care about sustainability and they chose the correct subject: renewable energy. This 20kW system will save over 24 tons of carbon dioxide throughout its lifetime and protect them from rising costs of energy.
